Huatai’s PM8, with a wire width of 5m and a design speed of 900mpm, will be upgraded and relocated with the goal of producing High Porosity Sack Paper with 100% virgin fiber and other grades with a portion of OCC.
For this challenging project, A.Celli will supply the ÆGO™ STREAM S headbox, capable of managing a very high slice flow up to 180.000 l/min and equipped with a state-of-the-art SMARPRO dilution water control system for the finest automatic regulation of the sheet basis weight profile.
The Chinese paper producer Rizhao Huatai chosen A.Celli Paper as key supplier for the PM8 rebuild thanks to previous similar experiences from PMT’s history. Thanks to the synergies with the organization and know-how of PMT, a leading paper machine developer and manufacturer with 60 years of history acquired in 2020, A.Celli Paper aims to expand its offer, ensuring cutting-edge technologies and timely assistance in the strategic sector of packaging, graphic and special papers.
Mr. Jinming Sui of Rizhao Huatai Paper states: “When it came time to rebuild our PM8, we were looking for an experienced supplier with a history of success for this type of intervention. A.Celli Paper and PMT had the right credentials, and this, along with their proposal, convinced us that they were the best partner we could ask for. We look forward to starting this new project together”
